Communities Coordinator

(Barcelona, Spain)

Everybody's on a different channel these days.

Amid all the noise, can you help people to tune in?

Are you able to connect community with people, people with community and make it all belong? Can you convince people that they matter and that their shared values matter; that they belong?

The Communities Coordinator is a role that radiates out from these central nuclei and connects to three main communities within the organization.These three communities are diverse but share a common love of science in general and photonics in particular. These communities are the Alumni, the Institute's Social Media Community and the Internal Community.

The needs of each of these communities are distinct, as are the Institute's aims vis-a-vis each one. Hence, the role demands a wide variety of skills.

What skills do I need?

 Communication - clear and effective yet diplomatic
 Organization - to always be on top of the workload
 Prioritization and time management - you'll often be faced with conflicting demands
 Messaging - awareness of how the values of the institute can best be represented whether on social media, for alumni or internally
 Basic database, social media algorithm and Wordpress knowledge - these will be key tools in your day-to-day tasks
 Attention to detail - precision and accuracy are just as important as the message itself
 Flexibility - events may run late, schedules may change, the unexpected may happen so a degree of flexibility is essential
